Things that Go Bump in the Night!

Does God Listen? 


Why walk by faith
and not by sight? 
Do you believe 
there is a God?

When I was much younger
my first real prayer
was for my kid brother
who was having nightmares. 

About a month later when asked
if he was still plagued
by nightmares at night,
he said,”No, not anymore.”

Freaked out I told him
what I had done
and he whispered and wished
I hadn’t said that…

Because now he’s scared
there really is a God.
And now I’m sure
there is one.

One who listens.

This actually happened when I was younger.  My brother told me that he no longer had nightmares after I prayed for him.  Sometimes you have no choice but to believe in the power of prayer.
